Interviews on this Show:
- "Warlord" Jonathon Boyd w/ Ripper Morgan talked, or should I say, shouted about how the United States of America are weak and ripe for a fall. The fall will come at the hands of The New Zealand Militia. The sounds of the war drums can already be heard in the distance, and it's just a matter of time before he and his militia dominate wrestling!
- Blackjack Mulligan talked about how Tully Blanchard is running like a scalded dog, but ole Blackjack is going to catch him and give him a whoopin' he's had coming for a long time. WHen he catches him, he's going to beat him over and over and over again.
- Mark Van Halen joined Stack for an interview, but he pretty much ignored Stack and just talked about how good looking he was, and how in shape he is. He talked about how nobody can escape his full nelson lock, and is going to give somebody a chance to do just that here today.
- Tully Blanchard talked about how Blackjack needs to be put out of his misery, and he is the one who is going to do it. He don't care if he has to fight Blackjack everyday, if thats what it takes, thats what he's going to do.
- Bobby Fulton of the Fantastics came out to talk about the injury to his partner Tommy Rogers, and was interrupted by Cable TV Champion Killer Brooks. Brooks came up making crying noises and making fun of Fulton. Fulton took exception and got in Brooks' face. They got into a shoving match and Fulton went to the ring and dared Brooks to come fight him. Brooks obliged.
- Matchmaker Joe Blanchard came out and talked about the feud between Tully and Blackjack. He said it has become to violent to continue, so he is telling them both right now that he will only sanction one more match between the two of them. He said that they will battle for the last time on Sunday night March 10 at the HemisFair Arena here in San Antonio. He said that he wants them both out here next week, and he wants them each to pick whatever stipulation they want for the match, and that's the match they'll have that night.

He was looking to finish as time was running out, but Tito Santana came to ringside to cheer on Fulton and it distracted Brooks till the time ran out. Brooks was furious but he quickly bailed when Tito came into the ring.
